I am a member of the Jewish faith, but there are members of the Jewish faith who simply have no connection to the historic mission of Jews. A group of West Bank settlers decided to attack Palestinian farmers by throwing firebombs into their homes. The result is one dead toddler and his parents and sister are injured. West Bank settlers are convinced that God took a few days off from His work around the universe to ensure that Jews, and only Jews, lived on the West Bank. When not attacking Palestinian farms and ripping up olive trees or just taking over land from Palestinians, these TERRORISTS are praying and pretending to be Jews.

Naturally, anyone who makes negative remarks about JEWISH TERRORISTS is simply a Jew hating Jew. In Israel these days, one can attack innocent people as long as they are not Jewish. There will be no peace in the Israel-Palestinian conflict until West Bank settlers are confronted and forced to end their TERRORIST attacks on the innocent.

like most Americans I was raised with the idea that an organization such as Planned Parenthood was sort of one of the nice,pleasant groups that offered services to women. You know, like the Girl Scouts which provided nice opportunities for young girls. But,the current group of Republicans have only one thought in their minds,–war on any and all women groups that have anything to do with medical services to women. An organization named the Center for Medical Progress has absolutely nothing to do with medicine, but it has a lot to do with catching employees of Planned Parenthood saying the wrong things. Members of this group trapped a Planned Parenthood official making “callous remarks” about fetal remains. It was a “gotcha”moment.

Now, Republicans in Congress are ready to end any funding of Planned Parenthood. They have no interest in services provided to women, the only thing on their agenda is “gotcha” making an ill advised remark. If one seeks to obtain “gotcha” remarks from anyone, just edit whatever anybody says until the “gotcha” is exposed. Republicans are simply a group of sick white men.

Among the groups in Iraq which are fighting most effectively agains ISIS are Kurdish troops who belong to the Kurdish Workers Party. Turkey is allegedly an ally of the US and NATO so it is expected to join in the fight against ISIS. Heck, an ISIS suicide bomber last week murdered over twenty Turkish young people. So, what is the stand of President Recep Erdogan of Turkey? You must understand that up to this moment he has refused to aid those fighting ISIS?

1. Erdogan is now willing to allow US planes to use Turkish airports.

2. However, according to President Erdogan, the real enemy is NOT ISIS. The real enemy is any Kurdish led military group.

3. In other words, the US is cooperating with Kurdish forces while our ally, Turkey, is bombing Kurdish forces.

4. Recep Erdogan is a bully, a man consumed with a desire for power, and a man who refuses to work in a cooperative manner with Kurds who live in Turkey or any other place in this world.

There are moments in my life when I would enjoy watching the news without encountering another story about some cop who halted someone for a minor traffic violation and then had to kill them because he feared for his life. The latest case occurred on the campus of the University of ?Cincinnati when a college cop halted someone for something. In the end, as it always happens, the motorist –who usually is of black skin–winds up dead. So, what now happens”?

1. The cop will be temporarily suspended –with pay.

2. The two cops who lied to defend him will be placed on temporary leave–with pay.

3. The family of the dead man will be tormented and angry demanding justice.

4. The media will report the story. Fox News will prove the cop was being threatened by a man without a weapon.

A famous definition of stupidity is the act of repeating an act over and over again even though the results are always the same. In 1960, the American government initiated its program to overthrow the government of Fidel Castro. Heck, in 1961 they even sent in Cuban exiles who were promptly captured during the infamous Bay of Pigs fiasco. Reality is that the Castro family has been in control of Cuba for over seventy years. During this time period the American government has enforced sanctions upon Cuba in an effort to destroy its economy.

Well, after seventy years Cuba is still around. Cuba is still run by the Castro boys. So, what is the response of Republicans to President Obama’s decision to end sanctions? According to Marco Rubio and the others, the solution is to: IMPOSE SANCTIONS. Inform Marco and the anti-Castro guys that what they desire has been in effect for over seventy years, and the result:

NO CHANGE IN THE CUBAN government.

I realize evidence or reality has scant place among Republicans seeking the presidency. They prefer the domain of stupidity.

American Republicans so enjoy about their desire to save Israel from terrorists. Yesterday, an ultra-Orthodox Jew in Israel decided the sight of males with males and females with females violates the Torah and what God wants. Yiahai Schlissel, one of those West Bank settlers who were commanded by God Himself to drive evil Muslims from the West Bank and only allow Jews to inhabit this area, decided that God had also informed him the sight of gay men with gay men and female lesbians with female lesbians had to end. So, he grabbed a knife and went after those in the gay parade celebrating gays. He wounded six while shouting, “I hate you.”

I asked Republicans who so love Israel to comment on this event>

1. Ted Cruz:Yishai was provoked. He had every right to defend himself.

2. Rick Santorum:One must obey the commandments of God.

3. Marco Rubio: The arrest of Yishai is simply another example of anti-Semitism.

5. Mike Huckabee: First they came for the Jews and sent them to the ovens, now when a Jew stands up for Jews,he is persecuted. This arrest was ordered by Barack Obama.

I confess to not being one of those guys who enjoys proving his manhood by blasting away with guns. Me, I was taught by the United States Army that intelligent soldiers avoid combat if it is possible. Heck, once they start shooting in your direction, someone could get hurt. Dr. Walter Palmer is one of those macho macho men who enjoy shooting animals with either a gun or an arrow. He so rises to the sound of combat and is ready and able to take on any unarmed animal in the forest. He claims that it was all a mistake when he initially wounded Cecil the tiger with an arrow and later finished off this terrifying beast with his gun.

How about:

1. NRA sponsored shooting contests in which guys with guns face off at one another and blast away. I will guarantee there is no outpouring of concern for the guy who just got shot. We Americans worry about lions,not people.

2. How about a shoot out between Texans who fear the recent Army maneuvers in Texas was the prelude for a takeover. OK, so Texans, how about taking on the US army and let us find out just how good you Texans are when handling people who can shoot back.

3.Question: when humans confront an animal in battle, on which side is God?
